> Also, is it possible you might ever allow the 's' word.
Yes, it's possible I might.
> Also, can I ask you - Do cuss words offend YOU?
No, they don't. But not everybody feels the same way about things as I do.
> In regard to your latest warning, I have been very upset and hurt since I saw it. I used the 'a' word which refers to buttox - BUT I CENSORED IT.
I'm not sure what you mean, you censored it. Can you explain, with a link to the specific post?
> You said a I might offend others - The poster above said she found my use of word (in context) great and funny. I brightened her.
Yes, she found it funny, but you might offend others.
> I ASSUME YOU DO WANT PEOPLE ON YOUR SITE AND FEEDBACK.
Yes.
> BTW DR. BOB, I really want to know your opinion of psychiatrists...

> BTW, if it is not appropriate to ask qstns here or of the above nature I'm sorry. I am clueless.I wouldn't say it's inappropriate to ask, but that isn't the kind of question I answer here.
> What's the go man? I couldn't see this happen nowhere near as much to anyone else.

> did you target me, cause I indeed was the only ones you saw with cuss words?Yes, you were the only one with so many. And others were starting to quote you...
> > please don't use language here that could offend others

> Whats the point of banning swear words? What exactly are you trying to achieve?The point is not to offend others.
> Civility is an subjective concept - your civility is not the same as mine. As aforementioned I have to conform to your conception. However, as this I assume is a democratic board and the use of such a word is not against the law, I question your need to warn me.
I agree, civility is subjective. Thank you for trying to conform. I would *not* call the administration of this site democratic.
> Your warn really hurt me, and I feel that maybe my posts have rubbed you up the wrong way. I feel worried that you want me off this board.
I'm sorry you feel hurt, but please don't take this personally. It's not you I don't want, it's uncivil posting.
> I'm all over the place due to Nardil W/drawal. I'm a wacky guy Dr. Bob... I communicate in a 'out there' way. Thats just me.
>
> Just don't block me - too traumatic for too many on this site to see me away for a week. Suicide rates for people on this site increast GREATLY during the 2 week ban I last had!!!!
>
> See, I just can't help being silly!Please consider not posting if you're feeling wacky. I don't consider it civil to joke about death or suicide, either. Have you read the FAQ?
